Some facilities provide minor help with medications as well. Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities provide supervision or assistance with activities of daily living. You have a close network of nearby family, friends, and neighbors. A nursing home may be a good choice if you need a higher level of care temporarily after a hospitalization, but it’s anticipated you will be able to return to home or another facility after a period of time. A nursing home may be a good choice if both medical and personal care needs have become too great to handle at home. An assisted living facility may be a good choice if you don’t need the round-the-clock medical care and supervision of a nursing home. Assisted living comes by many names, such as residential care, board and care, or group homes. Independent living is a general name for any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors. Retirement villages and retirement communities, unlike retirement homes, offer separate and autonomous homes for residents. A place in a retirement home can be paid for on a rental basis, like an apartment, or can be bought in perpetuity on the same basis as a condominium. More than two-thirds of the states use the licensure term assisted living. Assistance may include the administration or supervision of medication, or personal care services provided by a trained staff person. Nursing Home residents include the elderly and younger adults with physical or mental disabilities. Other licensure terms used for this philosophy of care include Residential Care Home, Assisted Care Living Facilities, and Personal Care Homes. Independent Living Communities enable residents to live as independently as possible, while providing certain services and social activities. A nursing home is normally the highest level of care for older adults outside of a hospital.
